Program Overview

International Foundation Year in Business, Law and Social Studies
This route leads to a wide range of degrees at the University of Leeds, in areas ranging from mathematics, economics and finance to law and social policy. You will study core and subject-specific modules, which are carefully tailored for your academic development and chosen area of study. Find out about the modules you will study and what kind of work you will be undertaking as a part of this pathway.

Once you have successfully completed your International Foundation Year and achieved the required progression grades, you will be well-equipped to start your undergraduate degree at the University of Leeds.

Leading to: Childhood Studies BA (Hons)

This exciting interdisciplinary degree offers a broad approach to understanding childhood and youth, helping you pursue a wide range of careers. These include working directly with children, working with young people and families, primary teaching, social work, local government and charity sector roles.

Our BA Childhood Studies explores different cultural constructions of childhood and youth, and the impact on lived realities in different contexts. Taking a child-centred approach, we encourage you to consider the rights and perspectives of children on all the matters that affect them.

You’ll have an opportunity to develop your knowledge and understanding through four inter-connected themes of study:

  • Research
  • Child Development
  • Children’s Rights, Social Justice and Policy
  • Sociology of Childhood

A choice of optional modules allows you to explore and discover your own interests, with the opportunity to gain practical experience of working with children and young people.
